thyroid and stomach pain
I am a 24 year old female who had my thyroid completely taken out. I was put on levothyroxin 137mcg. I take them fist thing every day on an empty stomach and after about 15 minutes i begin to have stomach pain and burning. Is it normal to take them every day? should i get a lower dosage?
thank you that was very helpfull y will be sure and ask him that on my next appointment.
Hi there. It is probably the fillers that are used in your brand which is causing the problem. Ask the doctor to change to another brand. Many people report tummy upset and then change brands and find it was the fillers in the original one causing the problems.
